Trio in D-Dur

Johann Christoph Conrad was a German composer and organist. He was born in Eisfeld in 1722, where he also became organist and directer of music later in his life. He died in 1784.

This fine 'style galante' trio is one of the few organ pieces we now have from Conrad. Above it is mentioned the term 'Vergnüglich', which mentions a certain lightness in playing and tempo. Certainly not the most complicated organ trio ever written, but a fine atmospheric piece which fits the Ahrend organ of Regensburg like a glove.
